When I started taking deer with various .223 loads (all under 100 yards) I could not believe my eyes when field dressing. "Souped lungs" plus a literally shredded heart in the same doe - yeah, I was incredulous. That was from a 68 grain OTM Black Hills load, broadside at about 15 yards. 60 grain Nosler Partition equally impressive.
I've seen less of that dramatic effect from two of the all copper Barnes loads and one Trophy Bonded Bear Claw although the deer were all down in 15-20 yards (all downhill, every dang time, go figure).
I think it's been mentioned that the latest form of barrier blind loads trade some of that for barrier performance. What have you seen on deer with that class? I've seen nice wound channels that ran long and deep but not the same level of internal explosion.
